In our experiments, ratio of shoot/root biomass in
relatively tolerant varieties did not change with increasing
(Asem cv) or decreasing (Saule and Ilek-42 cvs) NaCl
concentration, while in other cultivars, this ratio increased.
The significantly higher shoot/root ratio at the highest salt
level indicated that the accumulated dry mass in roots
was more affected than the one in the shoot (Ceccoli et
al., 2011).
